Egypt revolt: Amnesty International urges deeper probe

By Jon Leyne BBC News, Cairo

In a report, Amnesty gives an account of human rights abuses during the unrest and urges a thorough inquiry.

The rights group says that many victims remain to be compensated and culprits punished.

It also calls for a thorough reform of the security forces.

In a 123-page report, Amnesty gives a graphic account of the human rights abuses already widely reported to have happened during the revolution in January and February.
